BARB PIERSON wrote a sympathy message

“I am so sorry to hear this news today. Suzanne and I shared a lot of great memories in High School. Some memories I cannot share but they will be dear to my heart. Who could ever guess the miles we put on our cars doing the loop? It was fun times. I even remember her Mother piercing my ears with a needle, cat gut string and a potato. It worked and my ears are still pierced. To her family, your Mother was a kind and loving person. Travis, she was so proud of you . Love, Barb Pierson.”
